Soju (English pronunciation: / ˈ s oʊ dʒ uː /; Korean: 소주; Hanja: 燒酒) is a clear and colorless distilled alcoholic beverage, [1] [2] [3] traditionally made from rice, but later from other grains and has a flavor similar to vodka. [4]
Although soju is often compared to vodka, it has a sweet taste due to added sugar. The drink is usually served in a shot glass. It has a smooth, clean taste, and pairs well with a variety of Korean dishes. Soju is generally inexpensive; a typical bottle costs about ₩1,800, less than US$1.65 (convenience store standards). [49]

However, some people found soju difficult to drink due to its high alcohol content and strong flavor. Its popularity declined because of Korean societal changes regarding work, which resulted in people not having enough time to drink. [1]
